Em                             Am
Bende de bir kalp olduğunu unuttun galiba
Bm                     C
Yoksa böyle kırıp da gider miydin
Em                              Am
Bu şehre yağmurun yağdığını unutturdun ya
Bm                       C
Yoksa ardından gözyaşımı döker miydim

Em          Am   
Elinde sana son verdiğim güller var
Bm                C
Solmuş bizim gibi tüm güzel hatıralar

Em                   Am
Yalnız bir adam olup ufka bakıp seyre dalıp
Bm                       C
Sonra yürüdüğüm yollarda seni bulmaya çalıştım
Em                    Am
Yalnız bir kadın olup aşka küsüp meşke dalıp
Bm                      C
Sonra uyuduğun kollarda beni unutmaya çalıştın
Am                   Bm
Belki de aşık oldun bensizliğe

Em  Am  Bm  C  Em  Am  Bm  C

Harmony analysis

Pera – Belki de Aşık Oldun: key and chord analysis

The song opens on Em and ends on C. Its chords belong to both G major and Em, so every chord below is read both ways.

Major view

G major

Brightness rank 2/7 (bright)

Characteristic notes

7 = F# (leading tone, pulls home)
4 = C (the note that leans on the 3rd)

Minor view

E minor

Brightness rank 5/7 (leaning dark)

Characteristic notes

b6 = C (the minor's melancholy)
b7 = D (natural-minor colour)

Which side does the ear lean to?

Our reading: to us the song feels closer to the E minor side because it opens on Em and Em is heard 7 times while G never appears. That is an interpretation, not a rule — the same chords are just as valid seen from G major, and switching between the two views is exactly where the practice value lies.

Chord degrees: major and relative minor

Show the degrees above the chords — relative to G or to Em; comparing both readings is a practice of its own.

Every chord of the key, listed 1 to 7 separately for each key. Chords played in the song show how often they appear; chords from outside the scale sit next to their own degree.

Analysis

The key pair is G major and its relative E minor (1 sharp). 4 different chords appear 30 times in total; 4 of them sit naturally inside the shared scale. Everything stays inside one scale, which is why the song is easy to follow by ear.

Chord movement

C Em GIV → vi EmVI → iVI → i ×5
Bm Em Giii → vi Emv → inatural-minor cadence ×1

The move to watch is C → Em, heard 5 times. From the Em side it is VI → i (VI → i: falls a half step into home); from the G side it reads IV → vi. Knowing where these arrivals fall helps you feel the phrasing and anticipate the next chord.

Improvisation tips

G major pentatonic and E minor pentatonic are the same five notes (G – A – B – D – E): start from G for a brighter phrase, from E for a bluesier one.
Over Am, land on A, C, E — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
Over Bm, land on B, D, F# — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.
Over Em, land on E, G, B — the chord's own tones always sound right on strong beats.

The song's harmonic story

The first chord is Em; the ear learns where home is within a second. The chords that keep coming back are Am, Bm, Em, C; read them as ii–iii–vi–IV in G or iv–v–i–VI in Em. No chord leaves the shared scale, so a single pentatonic shape works over the whole song. Keep an ear on C → Em (IV → vi in G, VI → i in Em): VI → i — falls a half step into home. It closes on C, letting the G side have the last word.

This analysis is generated from the song's chords by akorculuk's harmony engine using consistent rules. When you change key, the degrees stay the same; only the chord names change.
